    Government’s contribution

    Under the Integrated Pension Scheme, the employee’s contribution for pension will be 10% of the basic salary and DA. The government will contribute 18.5%. The government contributes 14% to NPS, which has been increased to 18%. In this new pension scheme, provisions have also been made for family pension, guaranteed minimum pension and lump sum payment after retirement. Please note that the employees will have the option to choose between NPS and UPS only once.

  • GST Council: You may have to pay 18% GST on payments up to Rs 2000. See Details Here

    GST Council: The meeting of the Goods and Services Tax Council (GST Council) is scheduled to be held on September 9. In this, the proposal to impose 18 percent GST on payment aggregator companies like BillDesk and CCAvenue can be discussed.

    If this decision is taken, then they may have to pay GST even on payments of less than Rs 2000 through debit and credit cards. At present, they have been given exemption on small transactions. The GST Fitment Panel believes that these companies cannot be placed in the category of banks.

    80% of digital payments are worth less than Rs 2,000

    A report by CNBC TV18 claims that the GST fitment panel believes that GST should be imposed on payment aggregator companies. This will prove to be a big blow to all payment aggregator companies because currently more than 80 percent of the total digital payment transactions in the country are worth less than Rs 2000. According to a government notification issued during demonetisation in 2016, payment aggregators were barred from levying tax on services provided to merchants on small transactions.

    At present, fees ranging from 0.5% to 2% are charged

    Payment aggregators currently charge 0.5% to 2% on every transaction from merchants. If GST is implemented, they can pass on the additional cost to merchants. Currently, payment aggregators do not pay GST on transactions less than Rs 2000. They provide payment facilities through many digital payment systems like QR code, POS machine and net banking. If this happens, it will have a bad impact on small businessmen. Most of their payments are less than Rs 2000. If a businessman currently has to pay a fee of Rs 10 along with 1% gateway fee on a payment of Rs 1000, then after GST, he will have to pay Rs 11.80.

    GST will be applicable only on payments made through debit and credit cards

    Currently, UPI has become the most popular method of digital payment. In the financial year 2024, UPI transactions have increased by 57 percent on an annual basis and have crossed 131 billion. UPI’s share in digital payments has exceeded 80 percent. GST is applicable only on digital transactions done through debit and credit cards. Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) is not applicable on UPI transactions, so there will be no impact on them even after GST is imposed.

    Stop fake calls

    To curb the increasing number of fake calls and spam messages, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) is introducing new rules from September 1, 2024. TRAI has issued a strict guideline for telecom companies. TRAI has asked telecom companies to shift telemarketing calls and commercial messaging starting with 140 mobile number series to blockchain based DLT i.e. Distributed Laser Technology Platform by September 30.

    Telemarketing services will gradually shift to a blockchain-based system by September 30. This will increase security and reduce unwanted calls and messages. This move is a major step against telecom fraud, which will provide consumers more protection against scams.

    New Credit Card Rule

    Credit card rules are also going to change in the month of September, especially in terms of reward points and payment schedule. HDFC Bank will impose a limit on reward points on utility transactions, which means that card holders can earn fewer reward points when paying for services like electricity or water.

    In addition, IDFC First Bank is updating its payment schedules, which may impact when and how payments are processed. It is therefore important for credit card users to keep an eye on these changes to avoid losing reward points or facing any fees.

    Increase in Dearness Allowance (DA Hike)

    Central government employees may see a 3% increase in Dearness Allowance (DA) this September. Currently, government employees are being given 50% Dearness Allowance (DA). That means from next month it may increase from 50% to 53%.
